I've always believed that chances are "complications from diabetes" will be listed among my causes of death, barring accident. Of course, part of that has to do with the fact that most docs blame the diabetes for what ails ya, I'm sure they blame it for what kills ya.

I used to think diabetes would eventually kill me, which was my basis for not doing what I needed to to take care of myself...heck, why bother, right??

Diabetes will be hard to manage and sure does take a lot of my time, and I may get complications, but I am going to believe with all I have, that diabetes is NOT a death sentence...it is a life sentence, and I intend to LIVE!!
